Getting access to instantiated rigidbody c#

Unity Engine
1

Hello,

I need to get access to an instantiated prefab that contains a rigidbody to add some force to it in c#.

// Script 1 Instantiates it ...
void Start()
{
      GameObject fireBall = Instantiate( "FireBall", newVector3( 0, 0, 0), Quaternion.identity, 0 );
}



// Script 2 needs to access it ...
Rigidbody fireBallRigidBody = (Rigidbody)GetComponent<Rigidbody>();

if(fireBallRigidBody == null)
{
    Debug.Log ("fireBallRigidBody is null ");
}

Pretty simply I use to think but the rigidbody continues to be null and I’m apparently rusty …

I’ve done this before but drawing a blank and can’t seem to find a good example.

Hint?

Thanks

And of course as soon as I post to ask I figure it out.

fireBallRigidBody = fireBall.GetComponent<Rigidbody>();

Just make sure you do that in Start as well. :slight_smile:
